Privacy notice

Who maintains this site

NotCheapAI is maintained by Dejan Petkovic. For questions about this notice or a request concerning an email you have sent, use the contact address on our Contact page or email contact@notcheapai.com. This notice describes the current version as of 18 October 2026.

Calculator inputs stay in the current page session

The calculator runs in your browser. Our application does not send your budget, project settings, subscription selections or credit balances to AI providers or to a database. It does not request API keys, generate media or process payments.

Settings are held in the current page session, not stored by this application in cookies or local storage. Reloading starts a new calculation. Links to a calculator preset carry only its template identifier, not your balances or personal details.

Where your browser supports optional page tools, a connected assistant can read or change the visible calculator settings through that browser feature. Use of that assistant is governed by its own service settings and privacy terms.

Hosting and external services

NotCheapAI is hosted by Hostinger. Its hosting infrastructure may process connection information such as your IP address, browser details, requested pages, timestamps and security logs to deliver and protect the website. The calculator running locally in your browser does not mean that visiting the website creates no hosting records.

Provider documentation links lead to external websites. Those websites may collect information when you visit them. We do not control their privacy practices.

Contact messages

The contact form sends your email address, optional name, reason, page context and plain-text message through Hostinger SMTP to our contact mailbox. We use this information to respond or investigate your report. Please do not send passwords, payment details, API keys or unnecessary personal data. The form does not accept attachments.

Technical connection data and rate-limit counters help prevent abuse. Private rate-limit state contains keyed IP identifiers and timestamps, not message contents. Expired counters are removed during subsequent requests; hosting infrastructure may also keep connection and security logs. The application does not send contact field values to Google Analytics.

If you use the separate email channel, your email provider processes the message, sender address and any attachments to contact@notcheapai.com.

You can request deletion of correspondence by contacting the same address. Any request must be assessed against records we need to retain and the operation of the email service; we do not promise immediate deletion from third-party backups.

Advertising, cookies and consent

On notcheapai.com, NotCheapAI loads Google Analytics (GA4) to record page views and site interaction events, such as calculator use and newsletter-link clicks. Google may process usage and connection information and use cookies or similar technologies. The application itself keeps calculator settings in the current page session and does not use affiliate tracking in provider links.

The site also loads the Google AdSense advertising script; including that script does not mean that ads are approved or displayed. Google and its advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies to deliver, limit, personalize and measure advertising. This application does not currently implement its own cookie-consent banner or Consent Mode. Google services operate under their own privacy terms and any choices they provide.

Advertising cookies and your choices

Third-party advertising providers, including Google, can use cookies to select ads using information about earlier visits to this website and other websites. Google's advertising cookies can allow Google and its partners to personalize advertising based on browsing across sites.

You can manage or switch off Google's personalized advertising through Google Ads Settings:

Participating third-party advertising providers also offer choices at YourAdChoices:
